Thank you for your support this week! We launched several in-person classes at the City of San Antonio senior centers, and it was a great way to kick off the year. Our training team said it felt awesome reconnecting with our community partners and meeting our participants and Supporters in the real world. Be sure to check out next week's offerings below!
In case you missed it, our great City of San Antonio senior centers have extended their hours of operation to 8:00pm CST! If you are looking to do some exercise or participate in a Senior Planet class, stop by your local San Antonio senior center for more information.
Have an awesome week!
